Pressure Mark left on LCD Screen - iPhone 5

It's been less than a year for my iPhone 5 and the screen on the top left-hand end starts color-distorting when pressed/ touched lightly!
I take good care of my phone and i do not use it without a case. This is troubling me and I have read through many similar queries but i haven't found replies on any of them.

1. Can you post a screen shot or camera pic? There have been heat related streaks on some iMacs.
2. If it is just one part of the screen it sounds like a backlight problem. There are lamps behind the LCD, and either one of them is failing or part of the power inverter that runs them is failing. You need to take it in for an estimate. You can use this http://www.apple.com/buy/locator/service/ to find the closest place, either an Apple Store or an authorized service provider. But be prepared, it will not be cheap if it is a lamp or inverter.

  • Mark (stain) on LCD screen + Flickering

    I have an Imac Late 2009. I have 2 problems since one month:
    _1 My lcd screen has a stain (mark) on the upper right zone getting bigger and bigger.
    _2 My screen started to flicker randomly. It is not the whole screen but just the left part.
    Both problems appeared shortly after installing Lion.
    I don't have apple care. What should I do?
    Thanks.

  • Broken LCD screen iPhone 4S

    Can I get my iPhone 4S repaired, LCD screen shattered when I dropped it.

    Yes.
    Apple offers an out of warranty or not covered under the warranty "repair" price, which pays for an exchange at a significantly reduced price off the full retail sales price.
    Which country?

  • Oil slick mark appeared on LCD Screen

    Hello, hope someone can shed some light on this problem, think its terminal though.
    I was using my macbook (2007 mid) and was all fine, i went back a couple of days later, took it out of my bag and booted it up to find a large black area on the screen to the right with a large white square under it. The whole of this area is dead, the rest of the screen is fine. How has this happened whilst in the bag, looks to me like a right hand thumb my be the culprit but i would never hold my mac like this.
    Any help would be great.
    Cheers
    Paul

    Unfortunately, it looks as though your LCD panel has cracked.  The panel will need to be replaced.  For a 2007 Macbook, it will cost nearly the value of the machine for Apple to replace it.  You can generally get better pricing from an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP)... or, if you're technically inclined, you can purchase a panel and attempt to replace it yourself:

  • Crack in inner LCD screen of iPhone 4 or not?

    Yesterday, I suddenly realized that there was a small clump of red, green and black lines appearing on the top left hand corner of my iPhone screen (near to the receptioon signal). When I went to the Apple Service Centre, I was told that there was a crack in the inner LCD screen which led to it. He even pointed that the fine green line is an indication of a cracked LCD and it will only get worse in the long run. However, over yesterday's night and today, this "clump" has started to slowly disappeared and now it is totally gone. I am totally confused? Is it a cracked LCD or some weird problem? Is there anyone who can shed some light on what is going on? Although I'm happy that it is gone and things seems to return to normal.

    I think that it would be impossible for anyone on this forum to render an intelligent opinion without seeing your phone.

  • The left side of the iPhone 5S screen is bumping a little bit

    few days ago, i noticed that the left side of my iphone 5s screen seems to not be fixed well. if you take a look at it, you can notice a liitle bump (less than 1mm) in the edge of the edge of the screen. when i push the screen softly with my finger, it goes down and the bump diappears and when i release it, the bump appears. it semms like the edge of the screen is moving up and down in the left side. none of that is observed in the right side of the screen. what is the problem? how can be fixed?

    How long ago was the iPhone exposed to rain? How long did you attempt to dry it? How did you attempt to dry it? Did you power the device off before allowing it to dry?
    More than likely, given the behavior that you are describing, the device is damaged and will need to be replaced. Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of the nearest Apple Store for an out of warranty replacement.

    Definitly sounds like a physical issue with the phone. I suggest you go to your local Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider for help.

  • Brand new Canon 5d mark ii has dust inside of the LCD screen.. !!!

    Hello guys. I just received Canon 5d mark ii + 24-105mm lens kit in the mail couple of days ago. It's an amazing camera that will help to improve my work. I didn't want to use the camera until I received the screen protector and the UV filter to make sure that the camera is well protected.  (My previous SLR ended up having so many scratches on the LCD screen)
    So today I received the screen protector. I was cleaning the Lcd screen to install the protector and I realized that there is a dust inside of the LCD screen. I didn't even use the camera more than to see if it functions right. It's totally visible. 
    I was wondering if anyone had this problem with their brand new camera ?!?! 
    I know there is an option to exchange the camera since it's in the return/exchange period but I really don't have time for this. I have photo shoots coming up and I really can't be without my camera more than couple of days. Unfortunately they don't have the kit in any of Bestbuy location in Los Angeles area that I can go in and exchange.  They will ask me to return the camera kit to a Bestbuy location and wait for them to credit my Bestbuy card (which will take 3-4 days - and i don't have enough credit limit to buy another one right away and be patient for them to give me my money back ) and replace an order online again.
    Any advice appreciated...
    Thanks  

    First of all. Thank you for your reply. I actually realized couple of other things that made me suspicios that this camera was used before. Of course i might be wrong however - the package shipped from Bestbuy Return center + loose diopter adjuster knob before than even touching it + having dust inside the lcd screen + hair and dust inside the lens - made me really uncomfortable keeping this camera.
    Don't get me wrong, I love Best Buy. I've been shopping from Best Buy for years. I have been purchasing many things every year and I really do trust them.  That's the reason why i didn't mind to have Greek Squad 3 years extended waranty package with my purchase. However spending almost $3500 for a top of the line camera and not having it flawless from the first day made me a little disappointed. That's all.. 
    I will be going to Best Buy later today and return the camera. I am just hoping that they can refund the money to my card in couple of days so i can place an order for a new one. Even better if i can return the camera and they can place an order from the store for me.. 
    Thank you so much for your reply again... 

  • Iphone 4s has yellow line on the left of the screen in camera app

    Well basically as the title says. I bought my iphone 4s on Friday, came home and turned it on. Went through all the steps to get it up and going. Decided to test out the camera and it had a bunch of multi colored lines running across the screen. Decided to take it back to the sprint store, by that time(about 15 minutes) they were gone and the lead tech said it was probably just booting still but 15 minutes seemed excessive. Got home camera was fine but now I have a giant yellow line running down the left of my screen. I've tried cleaning the camera and screen so I'm assuming it is a problem with an internal lense. Would it be best just to take it back and get an new one or take it to apple and let them service it. Sprint is a lot closer then apple and Ill get a brand new phone right there and not have to wait.  The bottom is really the left side of my camera/screen
    Also I'm not exactly sure why all my pictures rotate when I sync them with my computer:

    I have literally had the exact same problem with my AT&T iphone! It's so irritating because the camera is one of the main features of the 4S. I am going to get a new one from the Apple Store I think.

  • I've just broke my iPhone 4S LCD screen.

    I've just broke my iphone 4S LCD screen, the actual glass is unbroken.
    Am I able to take it to an apple store to be fixed/replaced and how much would that cost me as I have no warranty but i've only had it for four months?

    Yeah, Out-of-Warranty replacements are refurbished iPhones. I went through the same thing with my 4th generation iPod Touch. The glass broke when it fell onto a hard tile floor. I brought it in to the Apple Store and the replacement cost $200. The replacement was a refurbished iPod Touch. They charge for the replacement because AppleCare doesn't cover accidental damage. If you want accidental damage covered, you'll have to get AppleCare+, which is a new option Apple just started carrrying a little while ago, probably to keep people buying some sort of AppleCare, as the regular Apple doesn't cover accidental damage(although a lot of people buy it thinking it covers accidental damage).
    Although they might actually repair your iPhone.
    I know exactly what you mean about not liking the idea of a previously used iPhone. I was in the same frame of mind as you when I was getting my iPod replaced. I didn't like the idea of a used iPod, but after a few minutes, I got over it. You can hardly tell that it's refurbished because it looks almost like new.

    Hi Guys!
    I'm German, so my english writing might not be perfect
    I had the same Issue on a 5 i bought. Exact same screen and writing. Battery was totally drawn, first thing I had to replace. The screen had been replaced and since then it wouldn't work anymore according to the previous owner.
    It took me a couple hours, after recieving a few errors like 4013 it just never completed the restore, got really hot as well. The Flexwire of the Dock Connector seemed damaged, replaced the dock, but that didn't help.
    I almost gave up, thought the Logic Board was bad.
    BUT! Then i deceided to check if it has anything to do with the Screen assembly, and it did.
    Long story short, on mine the front facing camera, and sensor assy were bad.
    Anyhow, the phone works ''perfect'' when i leave them unplugged. So I just ordered a new one and we will see if thats the problem or if the damage is in the Logic Board.
    If so, i can live without the sensor and front cam.
    Just wanted to share, good luck everyone.
